FOREWORD Books — there is no end to the making of hooks especidUy in this Twentieth Century, but of the many thousand that greet the public eye, in the course of a year, how brief is the existence of the great majority; how short lived their populari- ty. In the case of bad hooks, there is nothing to regret in this. Would that the impressions these have left behind them were as transient. But there is always need for a good hook,for a good hook is a friend, that raises our thoughts to higher things, that inspires us to nobler deeds; that encourages vs in hours of depression, and comforts us in those of sorrow; thai helps us to remember what we too often forget; that reading is not merely undertaken us a pastime — to while away a tedious hour, but it is one of the innumerable talents of which we shall have to give an account to God. Books have a wide spreading influence ; they are given admission where the writer would be refused, and they cften go into homes, impossible cf access to either Priest or Reli- gious. So the work of publishing good books to conteract the influence of those that are bad or to say the least, indifferent is a real apostolic work, and one that draws down upon it the divine blessing. Need we apologize then for presenting in English dress another little work, the story of a young girl, who in the early days of Christianity is said to have miffer- edfor her faith even to hermsm.

Two Emperors then reigned over the western por- tion of the Roman empire. The cruel Maxentius, who had risen from the lowest ranks of society, and who had not hesitated to dip his hands in the blood of his own father, Maximinus, in order to invest himself with the imperial purple, ruled over Italy, the northern part; of Africa and the whole of Egj-pt. Constantine, son of Constantius Chlorus, whose elec- tion had been received with acclamations by the army and the people, governed Gaul, Spain and Britain. As his father had done before him, this prince daily increased his influence over the hearts of his people, while Maxentius retained his crown by crime and cruelty. It was not to be wondered at then that his Italian sub- jects, wearied of his exactions and wickedness, turned " VALERIA their eyes towards Gaul, towards a prince who, to the prestige of royal birth added the qualities which en- noble the supreme power.

  • Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L
    Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L. Quilici and S. Quilici Gigli, 1995 Introduction The environs of Rome have undergone enormous changes from antiquity onwards, caused more by human intervention than by natural phenomena. Changes were already occurring in the archaic period as the region's population increased; these earliest phases of urbanization have been considerably illuminated by recent research. The changes intensified in Late Republican and imperial times, when urbanization reached a level unique for antiquity. Building activity connected with the city extended far enough into the countryside to link with construction centered upon surroundings towns. Thus the towns on the Tiburtine, Praenestine and Alban hills, as well as Ostia and Antium on the coast, were considered suburbs of the metropolis. After antiquity, by contrast, the region was almost deserted except in the hills. In the Late Middle Ages and subsequently, the spread of malaria and the extension of a pastoral economy reduced it to little more than a wilderness littered with the ruins remaining from an earlier era. By definition, there is some difficulty about showing settlements of different periods on a single map. We have marked those that can be located with either certainty or a fair degree of probability. At this scale no attempt is made to include every small settlement, let alone the whole complex infrastructure of the area. But we do mark cultural features notable for their size, state of preservation, or historical significance. These include large Late Republican and imperial villas, and the greatest monumental tombs. Inevitably, many estates, villas and tombs (some of them far from negligible) have had to be omitted.

  • The Sixth Mile of the Via Appia from Santa Maria Nova - Villa of the Quintilii to the Via Di Casal Rotondo
    The sixth mile of the Via Appia from Santa Maria Nova - Villa of the Quintilii to the via di Casal Rotondo Via Appia Antica This itinerary crosses one of the most evocative sections of the Appian Way, featuring a succession of impressive and smaller, yet equally interesting monuments. Beginning at the Santa Maria Nova farmhouse, which has become part of the archaeological area of the Villa of the Quintilii, to which the monumental nymphaeum facing the Via Appia Antica also belonged, and which, in the Middle Ages, was converted into a fortress. On the opposite side of the road is the so-called Curiatii Mound, which, together with another mound named for the Horatii slightly further south, brings to the mind episodes from Rome’s earliest history. These are followed by a succession of tombs and funerary inscriptions commemorating various characters given the POI Distance honour of being buried along the Queen of Roads. The itinerary ends at the enormous Mausoleum of Casal Rotondo, a 8 1.48 Km Roman tomb surmounted, in the Middle Ages, by a watchtower, which was later incorporated into a farmhouse, and which effectively exemplifies how these ancient buildings have been reused, for different purposes, over the centuries.

  • ARTH 311 Urbanism and Architecture in the Roman Empire: Rome, Ostia and Pompeii
    ARTH 311 Urbanism and Architecture in the Roman Empire: Rome, Ostia and Pompeii Professor Christopher Gregg Office: Robinson B 373 A Email: [email protected] Office Hour: Mondays 12:15-1:15 pm or by appointment. Description: Spanning the Mediterranean basin and extending into Europe and North Africa, the Roman Empire included a wide variety of urban spaces. In this course, we will examine three cities on the Italian peninsula—Rome, Ostia, and Pompeii—which offer examples of traditional architectural form and urban development. Rome, as capital of the empire, establishes prototypical monuments which are exported outward. Ostia, port city of Rome, reflects the developments in architecture and design in the capital but as a working-class city offers insight into different strata of Roman society. Finally, Pompeii reflects the wealth of an elite resort community embedded in a small-scale urban environment. By examining the individual architectural elements and organization of these three ancient cities, we will observe the standard forms of urban Romanitas (“Roman-ness”) and its significant variations. Please note that this course will focus on architecture and architectural decoration as well as concepts of urban planning and design. The course is not intended as a broad survey of Roman art. Also be aware that as a 300 level course, we will move at a fast pace and focus on precise, detailed readings of the material: exams will require a thorough understanding of specific information rather than “general” impressions. Objectives: Gain an understanding of the Roman concept of urban space Learn the major building types common to Roman cities Examine the physical components of Roman architecture and building design Integrate elements such as fresco painting and sculpture into the physical fabric of architecture and urban space Understand the importance of architecture and cityscapes as both a reflection and a formative influence on a society Texts and Resources: Amanda Claridge, Rome: An Oxford Archaeological Guide (Oxford Archaeological Guides).

There is one line of text around the edge of the stamp, and in the centre is a canine animal (interpreted by Dressel 1891 as a wolf, whilst Lanciani 1868: p.174 considered it to be a dog), walking to the right, with one front paw raised. It seems likely that it should be viewed as a wolf (lupus), punning upon the name of its producer (Bodel 2005).

  • Area of the Seven Aqueducts a Feast for the Eyes That Should Not Be Missed
    Area of the Seven Aqueducts A Feast for the Eyes That Should Not Be Missed By bike On foot Bounded by the Cinecittà and Quarto Miglio (Fourth Mile) neighborhoods, the Via Appia Nuova, and the Via Tuscolana, and crossed by the path of the ancient Latin Way, the area of the aqueducts represents the vestiges of a section of the Roman countryside that originally connected the Alban Hills to the gates of the city. A literal crossroads of the Roman water supply system, the area takes its name precisely from the massive ruins of the network of ancient aqueducts that made Rome famous. Six of the eleven aqueducts pass through this area, with a combined flow equivalent to 13 m3 (3434 US gallons) of water per second in the age of the city’s greatest splendor. To this can be added the Felice Aqueduct, built under papal authority during the Renaissance and still used today for irrigation. Like roads and sewers, the aqueducts were civil engineering projects on which the Romans showered particular attention, in order both to meet the hygienic needs of the inhabitants of the empire’s major cities and to assert their own culture: in fact, they had to fulfill the requirements of firmitas, venustas, and utilitas (“solidity, beauty, and utility”). Much of the channels are not visible, in part because they travel mostly underground, and in part because some of the more recent aqueducts have been built onto the surface structures of the ancient ones, such as the Felice Aqueduct which follows the route of the ancient Marcian Aqueduct.

He would have to wait almost 32 years! It was the summer of 1982 when I, aged 24, first made my way down the Appian Way with my wife Rosemary. It was baking hot and the grass was burned yellow. We made it all the way to the imposing ruins of the Villa of the Quintilii where I posed for a photograph in front of the Nymphaeum which faced on to the ancient Roman road. Back then the Villa was not open to the public. A vast complex, the main villa structures shimmered in the heat several hundred metres to ... in Istanbul 9 the east. It was tantalizing and I always planned to try and see it properly Norah Cooper one day. I had to wait almost 32 years until February 2014 when on one of our many visits to Rome we set out once more down the Via Appia. It’s not for the faint-hearted. To get there one of the best ways is to catch bus no. 118 from the Via delle Terme di Caracalla, just near Circo Massimo metro station on Linea B. The bus shudders and jolts down the ancient Via Appia exiting Rome at the Porta San Sebastiano by the so-called Arch of Drusus.
